13 of My Favorite Websites
- Manager Tools. They're podcasts that help you become a better manager, but I listen to become a better employee and identify career advancement moves.
- Fark. It's a great website to browse and find fun articles.
- Protopage. SteelersBoy got me started on this. It's now my homepage, and I use it to organize all my blogs, to read headlines, and to keep notes.
- FitDay. I just started using it the other day, but it's a great tool to track what you're eating. You can also track your exercises, which I haven't started doing, but it looks like it could work well.
- Mon.thly.info. It's a website that tracks your monthly cycle. So far it's been eerily accurate, even though my cycle is far from regular.
- Pandora. Listen to music online all day. It creates a mix for you based on genre, artist, or song.
- The Hype Machine. A web page that combs music blogs around the globe looking for posts about music. Discover a new artist, listen to songs in their pop-up player, or look for a track by your favorite artist.
- Corbis. A photography site with thousands and thousands of photos. Gorgeous photos.
- Worldwide Flight Tracker. Stalk your friends and family easily by tracking their flights. Call them immediately after touch-down, just to "check" that they landed safely. It's been my experience that this is more accurate than the airlines flight tracker.
- Jeff's SQL Server Blog. I've used it in the past to figure out how to do something in SQL, which I use constantly in my job. It's also a good education tool.
- Ohio Wines. It helps me discover new wineries, figure out events at wineries in the area, and find wineries at places I'm visiting in Ohio.
- Passive Aggressive Notes. I love finding out about the idiots in the world. Seriously, you must go to this website and review the posts. You'll start to doubt if humanity is indeed good.
- CNET. Use it for reviews, read articles about new technology, and figure out what you're going to buy next.
